May my children hear the whisper moving them to serve others. Their physical eyes hinder their God given sight… let them see past the physical imperfections of others and see what God sees! 1Jn 2:20, Jn 16:14

Do not let my children value what is worthy by the measure of this world. They will not fear displeasing their peers and being left out of certain circles, rather, they will develop a wholesome dread of displeasing You. Isaiah 8:12-13

I pray my children don’t become lifelong whiners… and I pray even harder that I don’t get sucked in by those who do! Give my children warrior spirits so they don’t freak out when they encounter trials (at least not for long!) Let me teach them (by example) to rise in the midst of adversity…

You are able to make every favor and earthly blessing come to my children in abundance so that they will always be self sufficient … possessing enough to require no aid or support and furnished in abundance for every good work and charitable donation. 2 Corinthians 9:8 

Work in my children; give them the desire to obey You and the power to do what pleases You. Philippians 2:13

Of course my children will fall, that is the nature of humanity! I pray they don’t view the fall as the end… but the beginning. Thank You for extending Your hand down to them… I pray they take it, rise in Your strength and finish the course You have set before them! Pr 25:16
